The average person produces 32 to 48 ounces of urine a day. The bladder can hold more than 2 cups at once for up to about 5 hours, which creates a lot of bladder pressure. Additional pressure is put on the bladder when it contracts to release all that urine, which normally happens 4 to 8 times a day.
